Why are you doing it that way. Just giving yourself problems. Replace one of the SATA's with a new one and let it rebuild the array, then replace the original, then use Acronis disk director or similar to extend the drive. Simple. Works every time.
S From: Jim Majorowicz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 06, 2008 12:28 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: New Drives for Proliant ML310 G2 I've got a customer that is using SBS 2003 Premium (Fully Patched) on a Proliant ML310 G2 with 80 GB SATA drives that is running out of space. The server is using non-hot plug drives with the onboard SATA controller in a RAID-1. This controller can only support 2 drives in this configuration, so I went to replace these drives with a pair of 250 GB drives and ran into a problem. I used Directory Services Restore Mode, and followed all the procedures in the Microsoft SBS Restore procedure. I even remembered to review the Report for short file name problems. However the damn thing still managed to blue screen on restart: PROCESS1_INITALIZATION_FAILED Stop 0x6B (0xC000007A, 0xB, 0x0, 0x0) I figured it was something to do with that damn RAID controller, so I tried repairing the OS (Boot from CD, Install (not Recovery), Repair Existing) and made it worse. I seem to recall that this stupid controller would cause problems like this. What do I need to do to get around this problem?
